GAME DAY - Tiges v Dogs

Must admit I was contemplating a rebuild at half time.

What a super second half. Tiger army was awesome also.

Doggies tall defenders are poo. As is Bruce. As is Schache. Dogs aren't going to win a premiership with that bunch.

Said I wouldn’t get to high or low on the result, I’m wrong.

Dogs got everything going their way and still got rolled. Real dent to their confidence.

Shows that our system is still king. Enormous win. Best of Dimma’s career? Maybe.

Did we get a free inside our 50 all night ? V maybe 4 or 5 to them ?

Did you see Dimma’s press conference? He gave a big tick to all three of those guys. I can’t see it when I can’t see them doing anything but apparently playing their role to allow us to win.

Assuming a couple to come back next week I think one of them will be dropped. If Mansell can keep playing a role back then it opens up a forward spot for Bakes.

Fair enough. But whatever role they had in the second half, it wasn't as a pure small forward trio. The grunt and X-factor of Bolton and Baker was huge in getting us across the line.

Did anyone at the ground pick up what Aarts' role was in the second half? I think he was further up the ground at times.

Been awhile since I've been here ............ but I couldn't stay away any longer because I feel the need to say a few words in regards to what Toby Nankervis means to the success of this team.
Every single week this bloke goes and gives our crumbers the first use of the ball either from Centre bounces or Boundary throw-in's with his tireless, non-stop contesting and football smart's. Always well positioned when dropping back behind the ball and there to take that repelling mark time and time again.
Keep up the great work Big Fella, you are leading this team superbly and I love watching your work, under the radar by everyone but us supporters and that's just fine.

Great win tonight Tiges, never out of any game and just keep chuggin' along Boys, there's more success at the end once again if you are at your best, long season ahead, pace yourselves and history will be ours !

Absolute warrior. The amount of contested marks he takes with blokes jumping all over him - amazing.

Takes almost as many as that great AA Naitanui.....

Rioli ,castanya are vital in our winning formula, especially the hard sprinting they do to block space when we loose the ball which is to force the opposition to kick to our defenders areas.
Rioli and castanya are generally top 2 for Tigers for quick sprints which is to cover areas of the ground further towards the middle,thus its hard to always get back to the forward line.
Dimma knows this,lots of our fans don't, dimma has 3 flags.

So Treloar had 27 disposals - he must have had them all in the first half.

Beavo frustrated that we had RCD and Ross play in the middle at times and we beat up their much hyped midfield. :clap2
